>I did not mean to imply that teacher individually refused tobe tested. The reality is that teachers are unionized in most public districts. Unions fight to limit the ability of employers (in this case school districts) to control their members.

Correct... and yes, teachers' unions do have a bit too much power sometimes, but a bit of generosity on the part of the districts can go a long way towards easing the teachers' reliance on the unions.

BTW - THANK YOU FOR YOUR DESIRE TO TEACH OUR CHILDREN. CHILDREN ARE OUR FUTURE. YOU AND PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE THE ONES WHO WILL PAVE THE ROAD FOR THE FUTURE SUCCESS OF OUR CHILDREN AND OUR COUNTRY. I am glad it is you, in part because you are fair.

Thank you for saying that but I have to get accepted into grad school first. Damn, the good times I had as an undergrad fraternity boy........it didn't help my GPA! ;~)
